Jamaican Medina Ground Loose Leaf Herb Tea 4oz – Traditional Wildcrafted Caribbean Herbal Tea
This is authentic Jamaican Medina herb, dried and ground into a loose leaf so it brews quickly and evenly. It is 100% natural, wildcrafted on the island and packed at 4 oz.
What Medina Is
Medina is a traditional Jamaican bush herb that is rarely seen outside the island. For generations it has been passed between families rather than sold on shop shelves.
It is gathered wild, dried and then ground. Nothing else goes into the pouch, so what you brew is simply the herb itself.
At a Glance
- 100% wildcrafted Jamaican Medina herb
- Dried and ground loose leaf for quick brewing
- Naturally caffeine-free
- Earthy, green, distinctly Jamaican character
- 4 oz, no additives or preservatives
- Packed in small batches by RastaMan Stew
How to Brew
Add one teaspoon of ground Medina to 8 oz of boiling water and steep for five minutes before straining.
Ground herb infuses faster than whole leaf, so check the colour at three minutes if you prefer a lighter cup.
Serving Suggestions
Medina takes well to ginger, honey and lime, which is how most Jamaican households serve a bush tea.
Brewed strong and then chilled, it also makes a clean iced herbal drink for warm weather.
Flavour Notes
Expect an earthy, green, faintly grassy cup with a dry finish. It is savoury rather than sweet.
It sits in the same family of flavours as cerasee and other Jamaican bush teas, though it is noticeably gentler.
Storage
Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry cupboard out of direct light. Ground herb loses its aroma faster than whole leaf, so reseal it promptly after each use.
